The federal bureau of public roads and Douglas county have been working all summer on the northern end of the road. a ; ACTIVE CLUBBERS El Regular meeting of the Active club held last evening at the Hoi' land Hotel was, from all opinions volunteered, a huge success. The guests at this gathering included B. "Pop" Oaten, Judge Olen Taylor, William Vawter, Larry Schade. "Toggery" Bill Isaacs, O. O. Alenderfer, John Moffatt, O. I. Mao- Donald, P. M. Kershaw, Olen Fab rick, A. O. Hubbard, S. S. Smith, E. O. Corn and Eugene Thorndyke, An 'Unusual nroaram arranaed the program committee followed the dinner. Bud Butherlln. a member of the Active olub, rendered two vocal solos, entitled, "On the Road to Mandalay," and "The Serenade from Tagllacol." Prince All Bendu (alias George Olson of the HoHy theater) was introduced and volun tarlly offered experiments In trans. oendentallsm. All concentrated quae' tlons were answered aloud, although It Is doubted if "Prince All" dis closed the entire truth, due to the fact that some of the members had brought their fathers as guests, JENKINS' COMMENT (Continued from page one) ' taken, the original highway map of Oregon aliould. be completed. 00 Total ' 77.1 Too 91.6 112.0 1474 KEW YOFK, Sept. SO, (AP) Strength in the railroad shares failed to bolster the rest of the list In to day stock market. Many Industrials. THB chief justification for this THIRD highway to the northern beaches, paralleling the two fine ex Isttng highways, which provide much more than adequately for all the beach traffic that exists, seems to be that Portland, which furnishes the bulk of the highway money, hasn' had its full share of money spent on roads In Its Immediate vicinity, That is true. But Portland, as Ore gon's only metropolitan city, Ore' gon's only reel jobbing city, Oregon's only real manufacturing and distrib uting olty, the center of Oregon's finance, has reaped its full measure of benefit from the building of roads that have tapped every section of Oregon and have mads It easy to get from any section of Oregon TO PORT LAND. PORTLAND, In this writer's judg meni, will reap infinitely more benefit from a program of widening and straightening Oregon's great highways, which carry the bulk of the year-round business and tourlat traffic, and so REALLY BUILD all of Oregon, Including Portland. Oregon's Chief city, than from the building of A THIRD highway from Portland to the beaches, parallsltng, or practical ly so, the two tine psved highways that already exist.

Phone 911 E TOLD TAX BURDEN VOTED BY PEOPLE Joining the state wide movement fat retrenchment and reduction of taxes, the Bellvlew Orsnge held an open meeting laat night and solicited the opinions and Information of J, B. Coleman, county assessor, and At torneys Frank Newman and T. J. Enrlght regarding county taxes and the county Healthh Unit. More than 150 Grangers and other Interested persons attended the ses sion. Sometime ago the Bellvlew Grange passed a resolution asking for removal of the health department and other county offices. Their ac tion waa followed by contrary resolu tlons on the part of about 10 Oranges of the county and the meet ing laat night was apparently called to make further Investigation of the situation. Attorney Newman presented reft ords of the health unit, which show the valuable service it has given the county. Approaching the question from both angles he also told the farmers If they do not consider this service worth the price they are pay ing for It they should dispense wlto biio department, or in case tney ieei that someone else could perform better service they should ask for another staff. No action was taken regarding the original resolution of the Grange. Attorney Enrlght, who represented Mrs. Lyda King, ox-county nurse, In her case against Dr. B, 0. Wilson of the health department, described the hearing to the Grangers. Assessor Coleman, who presented the county tax budget, gave the Grangers a short history of the orlgl nation of taxes, showing that they have been voted by the people, w,ho If they want lower taxes must abide by a retrenchment program. They have demanded better roads, better scnoois ana oilier xaciutiee and long as they have them, he pointed out,, must pay for them. Plans for the new county court house to be constructed were also discussed and many questions asked as to the number of rooms to be in cluded and the department to be housed In each room. There was no one present with a copy of the plans so most of the Grangers' questions went unanswered. fiETMliEfOOP WILL MEET TUESDAY The retail trade committee of the ohamber of commerce met this mor ning and decided to hold a meeting or an merchants at the Hotel Med iora next Tuesday evening. A nro- gram Is to be arranged for the 6:80 dinner aesslon and preliminary plans jot me annual ennstmss opening win oe aisoussed. A speaker will be announced for m meeting at an early date. The campaign to be undertaken by the national ana state ohambera of com. merce will also be considered at the meeting. STORY ONE (continued from page one) from doing or saying anything that oould be construed as .Indicating an intention again to seek public office. "In an emergonoy like the present the responsible elements of our party should offer a solid front in their support of the president. That Is me course 1 propose to pursue." inus, tue republican lesders Ben- rally agree that any contest against mr. noovera renominatlon haa nar rowed to one from the Independent faction. This group Is not now unit ed oenind any single candidate. Hoover Silent President Hoover himself main. talned silence on the Coolldge state ment although he was confronted with a batch of questions about It among the written' inquiries of the newspaper correspondents at veater. dsy's press conference. Senator Fens, the chairman, anrt Robert Lucas, executive director of the republican national committee, accepted the article and nroinotlv called for the renominatlon of the president. The announcement." Pens aairi "has been evident to all thlnknm people who are acquainted with paat history and who are familiar wlUi the character and public attitude of Mr. Coolldge. His statement should quiet the manufactured clamor of the antl-admlnlstratlon element. It also assures the alt but unanimous renominatlon of President Hoover and will be one of the determining faotora In his re-election." " " " V Bored Parents (By Alice Judson Feale) Two girls whose home apparently offers them everything they could desire are restless bored and hua- nappy. With a delightful house where their friends are always welcome, with a roadster at their disposal, with plenty of pleasant young people to play with, they alternate periods of feverish social activity .with tiroes of Inertia when nothing seems worth doing.' Except when the radio is playing and the living room full of their friends, they cannot bear to stay home, unless It be to sleep till noon. Since both children are gifted and Intelligent, such purposeless, unsat isfying living argues the absence of a dynamic Ideal In their elders. In this Instance the father Is so much away from home that he does not count tn Its life. The mother falls to furnish the necessary pattern for emulation. She, too, la restless, now busy with pur poseless activity, now for long periods beset with a sense of futility. A modern and efficient housekeep er, she has long empty afternoons when the rounds of bridge and shop ping and tea have been exhausted, and when a novel and a box of choco lates are hardly enough to stand be tween her and a sense of emptlncM. We parents owe It to our chtldron to find a sustaining interest which will give significance to dally living. Where the demands of money and home-making are not so great that they occupy all of our time, our u of leisure should be such as to give our children a feeling that the world Is full of unexplored Interests and poMlbllttlen for enjoyment. We need hobbles and avocations and the wholesome state of mind they engender If we are to furnish our children with the Impetus to go ahead toward worthwhile goals.

BLIND FLYING AT VIEWED BY LIONS Ao exhibition of "blind" flying waa given today at the local alrpott by Russell Cunningham, general sup erintendent of the Pacific Air Trans port, and Frank Anderllne, pilot, for the entertainment of the Lions club, which had lunobeon In the hangar building. Closed In by a hood, which shuts out all the outside world Anderllne took the plane over the valley, pilot ing It through instruction of Instru ments alone, after It left the runway. The radio used for communication with the ground -la also used as a means of receiving reports from the Instructor under the new system. Each time the plane swooped low ovsr the field the brsve Lions edged toward cover and none of them re quested a life in the "blind" flying expedition.. Mr. Cunningham Is going over the Paclflo Air Transport system giving "blind" flying lessons. Marc Jarmln was program chairman for today, and voiced the club's ap preciation of the hospitality extended the members by Phil Sharp and other members of the airport staff. The only complaint voiced by the club was against the volunteer waiter, who Invaded the kitchen and ran off with the coffee. Ensign J. R. Pack reminded the club membere of the Community Chest meeting to be held tomorrow evening and urged all who an mem bers of organizations represented In the chest to attend.
